- please send correct answer Q6arrow_forwardAfter sitting in a refrigerator for a while, a turkey at a temperature of 40°F is placed on the counter and slowly warms closer to room temperature (73°F). Newton's Law of Heating explains that the temperature of the turkey will increase proportionally to the difference between the temperature of the turkey and the temperature of the room, as given by the formula below: T = Ta + (To – Ta)e kt Ta =the temperature surrounding the object То = the initial temperature of the object t = the time in minutes T= the temperature of the object aftert minutes NE $4 8. 9 7 4 e k 5arrow_forwardPlease do not provide hand written solutionarrow_forward
